As darkness falls and the warm glow of torches lights up the paths, the special magic of Christmas fills the air. A short walk leads to a picturesque little chapel surrounded by nature, where the gentle ringing of a bell creates a touching moment of reflection. A nostalgic experience that brings back the charm of Christmas in days gone by.

Directions
Coming from Sterzing, follow the main road towards Ratschings and continue towards Flading. Approximately 50 m after Hotel Larchhof, there is a car park on the left-hand side of the road.
Public transport
The meeting point can be reached by bus line 319 (Sterzing – Ratschings). Get off at the “Larch” bus stop. However, the bus arrives approximately 1.5 hours before the torchlight walk begins. Guests travelling by public transport should therefore allow for the additional waiting time.
